Inquiry Evaluation

For my inquiry we made a movie.It was a news show and the special guest was a scientiist and the whole news was based on global warming. I think that the movie was good because it had lots of information in it about global warming and we hope people get the message and tell others so that we can help stop global warming, but it had some funny stuff aswell like when a fake scientist comes in and he is actually a meantal hospital patient, we needed to put stuff like this in so that people don't get bored. Next time I would make it shorter because people are going to get bored after a while, I would also make it a wee bit less funny because it got too silly.

Goals, Term 4.

My second goal is to do more excercise after school and in the weekends. I will acieve this goal by doing at least 20 minutes of an outside activity everyday so that I get fitter. I will know I have achieved it when I am fitter and I am into the routine of doing at least 20 minutes everyday. I will try and achieve this by the end of the term.

Ju's Term 4 Goals

My last goal is to help my mum out at home by doing extra jobs and helping her finish some of her own jobs. I will achieve this by doing any jobs that I can, when I can to help out mum. I will know I have achieved it when mum doesn't have as much to do. I will try and achieve this by the end of the term.

Ju's Persuasive Writing

We should not be spending our days at the mall and talking on cellphones while we are young.

We should be free while we can because when we are older we will have heaps of time to do stuff like that and while we are still young we shouldn’t waste our time. We need to go outside and play and get into a bit of trouble sometimes and we can’t do that when we are older.

A lot of girls are putting on make up and trying to look as good as possible and just to be cool. But we shouldn’t care about doing stuff like that because we will have 30 or 40 years for it when we are older. We only have about 10 years to have fun and most of us have already wasted about 5 of those years.

I have met heaps of adults that regret not having fun while they could’ve and they all tell me to go outside and play and get muddy and wet and do whatever we want while we still have time.

I know heaps of people who look up to the adults and their sisters or brothers and try to be like them but when we get to that age we can do what they were doing and that gives us something to look forward to. Most people don’t know this but the adults and the teenagers are almost looking up to us, because we have barely any responsibilities and we are free to do whatever we want.

Overall I think that some people do act their age but more of us need to, because if we don’t we will regret it and we won’t get another chance.

This is my rubric of this piece of writing:

The Emperor is a Fake

I don’t know why you belive that silly emperors story, can’t you tell that he’s a fake, well you aren’t as smart as we are and it did take us a while to figurre it out.

Well this is the true story,
We were walking down the street, just wandering along when up came a man wearing rags, we felt so sorry for him so we said that we would do him a favour. So he asked us to go to the Emperor and make him some amazing clothes because the emperor wouldn’t let a poor ragged man into his amazingly beautiful castle. We agreed to make the emperor some clothes and bring back the money. The poor man gave us the bags of material (which were suprisingly light) and said “The material can only be seen by smart people.

Then off we went to the castle, we told the emperor exactly what the beggar had said, and he told everybody else that if they couldn’t see it they were stupid and would have to be locked up in the dungeon.

We worked and worked even though we couldn’t actually see the material we were working with, but we thought we would be able to see it once we had finished but when the day came we still couldn’t see it and that was very suspicious because we are the smartest people in town.

We gave the emperor some clothes and he said that he could see them and that they were beautiful. He put them on at once. It was a horrific sight we saw for it turned out the emperor didn’t wear underpants! He went out to show off his clothes and some how he already knew that no one could see them and that was our second clue.

Soon the whole town was in the dungeon except for us and the Emperor. We took a long hard look at him and we realised that we had seen him somewhere before, but where?

We lay on our beds thinking for about an hour, then suddenly we both jumped to our feet, that ragged man we had seen weeks before looked exactly like the emperor. We talked and talked all night long untill we finally figured out the whole thing.

The Emperor needed attention and that’s why he became obsessed with fashion, because it was somethig knew and interesting but after a few years it became old and boring so he needed a new plan, a plan that no one would forget, that every single country of the world.

He knew us infact he had been watching our every move and he knew that we would do anything for a poor old beggar. So he dressed up as one and asked us to do what what we did even though there was no material. He just wanted people to think that he was the smartest man in the world.

One day we went for a really long drive to find a police station that had police men that weren’t locked up in the dungeon and we told them the story but we were too late because the emperor wrote a book about it and that book is still around today.

But now hopefully you believe that the Emperor is truly A FAKE.
